They claimed she won $500,000 through a sweepstakes she most likely entered at Walmart, CVS or Walgreens. She was told that taxes would need to be paid because she lives in the state of Georgia. She was told the check for $500, 000 was on a plane in Florida and could not be mailed to her until the taxes were paid. She sent them money orders totaling $6000 and still owes $13,000 in order to get the check. She was told not to tell anyone as she is under a gag order. She was given a number to a so called lawyer as well that somehow convinced her that this sweepstakes winning was in fact real. She was told they were in an office in the White House and another office with the Internal Revenue Service.

I was called by a man claiming to be Gary, a Gaming Commissioner out of Las Vegas. He wasid he was contacting me on behalf of the Federal government to let me know that I had won $750,000. He said his number was 702-765-4472, but I would need to contact Sue (202-558-4561) or Donald (202-470-3926), the Federal agents that were going to hand deliver my check. When I called the first 202 number, I spoke to someone who claimed to be a Federal agent and he told me that I would need to send $900 to insure the two agents while they traveled to me. When I said I didn't have the money, he asked me to take out a payday or car title loan. He said I'd be able to pay it off the next week and not to worry about it. I did take out a car title loan in Idaho Falls. I told the woman who did the loan I was going to pay it off quickly due to lottery money I won. I then took the $900 cash to the grocery store where I told the clerk I was wiring money to pay for my lottery winnings. The money went to Joregecalderon Diaz in Costa Rica. I was told by the Federal agents that, like Puerto Rico, was basically a US state. I wired the money and waited. Shortly after I got a call saying I needed to send another $500 to Manuel Vargas Hernandez in San Jose, Costa Rica and when I said I didn't have that much more money, the guy calling me started screaming and swearing at me. That's when I started to wonder if it was a scam.
